Chapter 856 – #178_Thesis Appreciation (4)

One.
What is Magic?

If you see a human ignorant of magic using magic, you will literally think of it as ‘magical’.
In other words, it is something ambiguous, mysterious, unexplainable, unprovable supernatural power.

But the essence of magic was always one.

It is a highly developed science and technology that derives phenomena from magical powers.
Like any other study, magic also uses countless debates and discussions as a driving force for knowledge accumulation.

In the midst of denying existing theories, creating new theories, and lining up multiple interpretations of one theory.
Whenever there is a gap, they often confront each other sharply.

Even if it is not an extreme case like negative audit, witches who have been in academia always publish papers and go through fierce refutations like wars in peer review such as comments and criticism.

It’s just everyday

Therefore, the questionnaire that Lisenne filled out the document she was holding was not a simple object.
Written by the heads of witches close to her, including Baron Demer.

It points out the logical flow, entices us to spit out sophistry, and elicits more in-depth answers.

A trump weapon to openly dig up if there is a part that is even slightly ambiguous.
It was like a poisoned dagger wrapped in malicious rhetoric.

Even Lee Seine, who had shrunk in many ways, regained her confidence when she turned over the first page of her document.
However…

“…”

She ran out of half of her confident questions.

The sharp dagger couldn’t even scratch his logic like an iron wall.
I saw an illusion of countless daggers falling at his feet, clad in black armor.

“The accuser side, ask a question.”

Licennes bit her molars so as not to show it, and looked for the next dagger.

This time, it’s not just a question to judge understanding.

It is a trap to cleverly criticize the ethical aspect of the experiment and raise another suspicion.
It’s a rude question that’s asked in a roundabout way, and a trap that becomes a bad idea if you fire back at it.

Shin Si-woo has been showing the words and actions of ‘I don’t like being suspected of stealing’.
The nerve warfare that gently scratches the nerves might actually work.

“The author’s thesis suggests the clinical usefulness of Gnosis eggs. However, data from clinical trials are remarkably lacking. If there are any real examples, could you share them here?”

“There is not a single word written about clinical usefulness in my doze. We are discussing the combination of different magnetic magics.”

“However, the combination of different magnetism tends to be a study of Gnosis eggs. If not… Aren’t you studying examples of exploits?”

“This is an off-topic question. I ask for mediation.”

However, Shin Si-woo escapes the snare with his snort.

“Accept the request. The accuser, please refrain from asking questions that go against the purpose of the audit.”

Lisenne bit her lip once and threw the next dagger.

“Additional explanations are required for ‘symbolic control’, which is presented as type C of the rebound control model.”

It is one of the parts that attracted as much attention as his omitted proof.
In addition, it is also a part that I had to skip as if I could understand it because of the ambiguous answer.

Siwoo picked up the chalk and stood in front of the empty blackboard again.

“Many magnetic magics adopt ‘symbols’ in their use of magic. It is to strengthen the uniqueness and efficiency of magnetism magic by using the symbol system that has already been established before exerting influence on the world.”

He drew two circles on the board.
Write an A on one circle and a B on the other, then draw different concentric circles.

“If each small circle is magnetism magic, let’s assume that the large circle is a symbol used to construct magnetism magic. As you can see, because of the existence of these symbols, combining different magnetism spells will cause a conflict between symbol systems.

The concentric circles overlapped like a Venn diagram, and Siwoo painted the overlapping parts white by laying chalk on them.

“The greater the overlap, the greater the conflict between the symbol systems and the enormous conversion overload. Magic attribute is wasted trying to control conversion overload, optimization is messed up, and inevitably one or the other symbol has to be greatly weakened to force it right.”

Siwoo quickly writes down the calculation formula below it.

“Trying to juxtapose the symbols of reality on top of one another is an outdated format. Symbolic control, type C of the backlash control model, solves this problem through the separation of ‘phase’.”

The question itself was pretty sharp.
I was pointing out one of the important elements that I didn’t add.

However, for Siwoo, even he is only 1.5 generations old, a path he has walked a very long time ago.

And a new definition that was not written down in the thesis crosses the blackboard.

“The symbols that witches borrow are like ‘music scores’ or ‘numbers’ after all. It is an idea created arbitrarily to draw elements that exist in the natural world. If you don’t understand it, think of imaginary numbers.”

Lysenne did not understand what he was saying.

This is because it did not appear in the material she had prepared, and it was a part she skipped over even when discussing it with Baron de Mer.

I couldn’t even imagine going into more depth than this.

“You don’t seem to understand?”

It wasn’t just Lee Seine who frowned on her.

Not only the randomly selected witches in the audience, but also the witches from the Academy of Truth and Truth and the Emerald Tablet were looking at Siwoo with expressions like, “What are you talking about all of a sudden?”

“You don’t have to think of a symbol as a ‘face’. Also, you don’t have to feel that you have to be in one phase. As I explained earlier, that is preconceived notion.”

He snapped his fingers and used telekinesis.
The white chalk powder that had been smeared on the blackboard rises into the air as it is.

“How about this?”

The two floating circles, A and B, clearly overlapped when viewed from the audience.
However, in reality, there is a distance in front and back, so they do not physically overlap.

Just by bringing something that was on a flat surface into a higher space, the actual contact disappeared.

Sensing uneasiness, Lee Seine jumped up from her seat and asked back.

“It can’t be that easy, can it? Is it possible to combine magnetic magic without existing in the same phase in the first place?”

“It’s possible. For example, what is the symbol of fire? Ruby, campfire, ash, volcanic, red.
So what is the symbol of life? Flowers, heart, breath, blood… How about this? A lot, right? As such, the symbol system is loose. You can exercise flexibility. From the top, if there is only ‘overlapping’, it doesn’t matter how far apart the actual phase is.
Of course, if they were too far apart, the influence of either would be greatly diminished.
The relational expression for this is:

The writing is filled without pause throughout the explanation.

Listening to the sound of chalk clattering like her horses’ hooves, Lysène realized.
Not only Lisenne, but everyone gathered here realized it.

The rest of the questions in Lee Seine’s hands, the pile of papers to raise suspicions of her theft, were all but gone.

Shin Si-woo explained his knowledge very leisurely and skillfully.
In addition, it also helps understanding by entering appropriate analogies and easy explanations.

It is not enough to completely answer the questions about the thesis, but it is also described without obstruction about further expanded knowledge.

What he sees in his in-depth argument is never at a level that is possible because someone informs him.
It is a performance that can only be performed with the knowledge and ability accumulated by oneself.

“Answers to questions are ideal.”

Siwoo declares by changing the chalk that has completely changed into a new one.

There is silence in the hall.
Chief Librarian Gremory opened his mouth.

“Accuser, do you have any more questions?”

The bundle of papers in Lisenne’s hand slid down effortlessly.

Baron Demer was wrong.
Throwing a forged dagger based on the premise that he stole it is only an ugly struggle of a loser.

“… Doesn’t exist.”

Baron Demer will take care of the aftermath, but it is a predestined procedure that Lisenne’s honor be tarnished.
It was obvious that even going for a walk would be difficult until he was trained to a certain extent.

If it was the only hope, the audience’s questions were sharper than Risenne’s, so she had to hope Shin Si-woo made a mistake, but Risene wasn’t so ignorant and naive.

Failure is failure

“Is it okay if I proceed with the author’s side? If you want, we will take a break for 30 minutes.”
“It’s okay.”
“Then, I’ll take questions from the audience.”

Dozens of witches raise their hands in unison as soon as Chief Gremory’s words run out.

The sound of her collar waving was as majestic as waving a large flag.
The witch, who hadn’t raised her hand, held on to her paper and pen, and she was engrossed in a new idea she came up with.

The designated witch rose from her seat and bowed her head toward her Siu, paying her respects.

“I am Tarva Hecate, the ‘Witch of Spirituality’. I have an additional question regarding topological proofs. If the definition of the phase set by the author is similar to the magic realization level…”
“That’s simple.”

Siwoo listened to her explanation, pondered for a while, and then came up with a clear answer as before with the blackboard.

“I will take the next question.”

Arms vigorously rising into the sky like seagulls begging for shrimp crackers.

“I am the ‘Witch of Jinyu’. I was very impressed with the author’s thesis. Following…”

Due to the large number of audience members and time constraints, it had to be shortened as long as possible, but most of the witches sat down with expressions of understanding.

This position was no longer a fraudulent research audit to uncover suspicions of theft.
She was a lecture hall full of enthusiasm, losing face and waving her hand like a child to get a little more instruction.

“Above the time constraints, we finish the audience Q&A for in-depth argumentation. Shin Si-woo, go back to the author’s seat and take a seat.”

The evidence was clearly revealed the moment Siwoo came down from the podium after answering the 30th question.

– Mate mate

After the question and answer session, the auditorium became quiet.

Lonely applause resounds among the remnants of the passion for learning that still remains.
It was the sound coming from the audience.

– Mate mate mate mate

At first, only one applause spreads like wildfire in a dry field, like a shower.

———!!

Soon, the sound of hand clapping pouring down to the point where the skin tingled meant only one thing.

The audience gathered here is not a member of the jury.
They do not have the right to judge the audit, and it is only the audit committee’s job to determine the suspicion of theft.

However, when it comes to magic, the witches are more proud than anyone else and are stubborn.
Arrogant, tactless, boring, inflexible, natural-born scholars who would not waste their lives for the sake of magic.

They were silently conveying their opinions on this audit with applause without cheers.

The crying woman is not a young witch blinded by the desire for honor.
That it was a new supernova in the witch academia.
